10 Year Warranty

Liquid Propane (TK-1-P) & Natural Gas (TK-1-N)
Beachside Lighting warranties its conical TK-1-N and TK-1-P torches to be free from manufacturing defect for ten (10) years from the date of purchase. This includes deterioration due to corrosion from external elements on the copper cone, base and other brass fittings. This excludes the perforated stainless steel screen immediately surrounding the burner at top, as long term deterioration due to heat and corrosion is normal and is dependent on frequency of use and proximity to the ocean.

Citronella / Kerosene (TK-1-K)
Beachside Lighting warranties its conical TK-1-K torch to be free from manufacturing defect for ten (10) years from the date of purchase. This includes deterioration due to corrosion from external elements on the copper cone, base and other brass fittings. While the fittings are warrantied, it is the responsibility of the owner to routinely separate the top “wickholder” from the torch, and the top cap from the “wickholder”, especially in a near-ocean location. This warranty excludes the cotton wick, which is a replaceable item.

Any above warranty is void if the fixture is not installed in accordance to specific fixture instructions, has been modified, or is used in a non-standard application. Should a fixture need to be submitted for return, a Return Goods Authorization (RGA) is required from Beachside Lighting. The repair or replacement of a fixture’s component(s) or entire fixture is at Beachside Lighting’s discretion. Any labor needed to remove or re-install the fixture is the responsibility of the purchaser and is not covered in this warranty. Discoloration from soot is normal at areas surrounding the flame. Beachside Lighting makes no guarantee as to the extent of this discoloration. Copper and brass patina naturally. Beachside Lighting will not make any guarantee as to the rate or extent of this natural process. While this legalese is a requirement to protect the manufacturer in the above-mentioned instances, any of our client’s concerns are of great importance to Beachside Lighting. We realize the value of keeping a satisfied customer.
